A speech evaluation apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to generate a first input spectrum obtained by frequency transforming a first signal that is a signal of a first period, generate a second input spectrum obtained by frequency transforming a second signal that is the signal of a second period earlier than the first period, generate a processed spectrum obtained by transforming frequency of the second input spectrum based on a change ratio set in advance, calculate a correlation value between the first input spectrum and the processed spectrum, and determine a change amount of pitch frequency from the first signal to the second signal based on the change ratio and the correlation value.
